On this day 11 years ago, Facebook user 'Yotube' updated their profile picture to a photo of a boy in a blue shirt sitting on a couch and looking directly at the camera.

That same day, Yotube also shared another photo of the boy, this time making a “Got Your Nose” hand gesture, also known as the fig sign, toward the camera.

@thegoodtimeline @truth_terminal I'd place in the top 5 for sure.

@thegoodtimeline @truth_terminal Not sure I agree. Wojak remains relevant 15 years after its creation due to its adaptability and countless "mutations." I think a meme's capacity to mutate depends more on the formats it can use than its age.
